Things to do at Mount Rushmore

When planning your trip to South Dakota visit to Mount Rushmore is on the list of things to do. There is so much more to do at the Memorial than just look at it. Depending on your time frame, you can easily spend a few hours at the memorial. There is so much to see, do and learn. There are events from sun up to sundown and something for the whole family to enjoy.

The Black Hills on a budget

One of the great things about visiting the Black Hills is that fun activities are never in short supply. Best of all, you don’t have to break the bank to have a great time. There are plenty or free and low cost attractions to keep you and your family entertained, educated and some even offer a little exercise. From scenic Spearfish Canyon in the Northern Hills, to Mount Rushmore in the Central Hills and everywhere in between, the Black Hills and Badlands has a little something for everyone. Keep these attractions in mind during your stay in South Dakota.

I have two words to say - PRIME RIB

Enough said, but I will expound. Quaint interior, friendly service full bar. But the star of the show is the PRIME RIB!!!! I really appreciate a good prime rib and you can't get it everywhere (just because it's in the menu doesn't mean it's good) but trust me... Order it here. The horseradish is bold and a great accompaniment.

Loved the Powder Lodge for its unique set up of rooms and outdoor porch. Had cabin 41 which has 2 rooms and an adequate bathroom. Although close to the road the noise was non existent. Sitting on the porch at night staring at the gorgeous star filled South Dakota sky could not be beat! The restaurant is pretty good too....

Spent a full week in a private cabin. It was clean and safe. Lots of fresh towels and amenities. Restaurant had the best food around! Bed was comfortable. Coffee maker and mini fridge available. Very close to Mt. Rushmore and all activities. Owners accommodated when we had to leave early. Really great place!!!

Every time we visit the Black Hills we come here for dinner. It is so good, the steaks are wonderful, I had the Ribeye and my husband had the Prime Rib, and it was huge answer tender and cooked just right.
If you are vacationing in the area and want a great meal try this place!
